Overview

About 1 Southview Cottages

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

1 Southview Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Shamley Green, Guildford, Guildford (GU5 0UP). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 942 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 62). The latest certificate is from March 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £650,000 sits 88.4% above the 2011 sale of £345,000. At 88 m² it's 23.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (115 m² median across 25 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). 15 years since the last transfer (July 2011). One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2001.
